CR-505 must be in Standby mode, otherwise
the timed task will not work.

MD recorder had not been in standby mode.
You must set the recording devices to standby

Abnormal Behavior
The CR-505 contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interfer-
ence, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely even that this should happen,
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least five seconds, and then plug it back in again.
Restoring the Default Settings
To reset the CR-505 to its factory defaults, turn it off and unplug the power cord. Then press and hold the [STANDBY/ON]
button on the CR-505, and plug in the power cord.
